/**
 * @file
 * Standard logging facilities (interface).
 *
 * To use one of the standard log channels, put something like the following at the start
 * of your .cpp file:
 *
 * static lg::log_domain log_display("display");
 * #define ERR_DP LOG_STREAM(err, log_display)
 * #define LOG_DP LOG_STREAM(info, log_display)
 *
 * Then stream logging info to ERR_DP, or LOG_DP, as if it were an ostream like std::cerr.
 * (In general it will actually be std::cerr at runtime when logging is enabled.)
 *
 * LOG_DP << "Found a window resize event: ...\n";
 *
 * Please do not use iomanip features like std::hex directly on the logger. Because of the
 * design of the logger, this will result in all of the loggers (in fact std::cerr) being
 * imbued with std::hex. Please use a formatter instead.
 *
 * #include "formatter.hpp"
 *
 * LOG_DP << (formatter() << "The random seed is: '" << std::hex << seed << "'\n").str();
 *
 * It might be nice if somehow the logger class / macros could support using iomanip
 * things directly, but right now it doesn't, and it seems that it would complicate the
 * design greatly enough that it doesn't seem worth it.
